We look forward to bringing comfort and low fares to more passengers around the world as Wizz Air, Volaris, JetSMART and Frontier continue to expand.” John Leahy said; “Indigo Partners have been a tremendous customer and supporter of the Airbus single-aisle fleet for many years. An order for 430 aircraft is remarkable, but it’s particularly gratifying to all of us at Airbus when it comes from a group of airline professionals who know our products as well as the folks at Indigo Partners do. We are proud to augment their airline fleets in Latin America, North America and Europe with the single-aisle aircraft that offers the lowest operating costs, longest range and most spacious cabin: the A320neo Family.” Also present at the announcement were Enrique Beltranena, CEO of Volaris; Barry Biffle, CEO of Frontier Airlines; Estuardo Ortiz, CEO of JetSMART; and József Váradi, CEO of Wizz Air.

CRISTIAN CARVALLO G. PROFESOR CORREFERENTE : SR. MARTINUS POTTERS ENERO 2018 Organización industrial del transporte aéreo en Chile RESUMEN EJECUTIVO El transporte aéreo se encuentra en vías de crecimiento a nivel mundial, hace años que se están experimentando aumentos en la demanda tanto, para transporte de pasajeros como de carga en todas las regiones. Por otro lado, la llegada de las compañías de bajo costo (Low Cost) a los países de Sudamérica ha generado un revuelo en la industria, obligando a las compañías aéreas a tomar nuevas estrategias e irse adaptando a los cambios para mantenerse dentro de la industria. En Chile, el transporte aéreo ha evolucionado fuertemente entre los años 1998 y 2016, ejemplo de esto ha sido evolución en términos de flota, las principales aerolíneas realizan cambio de aviones antiguos por nuevos (787-8/9, A320Neo), con mejor tecnología, menor consumo de combustible y menor emisión de dióxido de carbono. Por otro lado, evoluciones en términos de estrategias, como el cambio que experimentó Sky Airline de pasar a ser aerolínea de bajo coste, como también el cambio de Latam a un modelo de eficiencia, en que lanzó 4 tarifas para sus vuelos. Finalmente, y no menos importante la remodelación del aeropuerto Internacional Arturo Merino Benitez. Para analizar la organización industrial del transporte aéreo en Chile, se plantearon dos modelos: “Enfoque ECD (Estructura-Conducta-Desempeño” y “La nueva relación ECD”.

  • Argentina's Airline Networks: Successes and Challenges T David J
    Journal of Transport Geography 86 (2020) 102761 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Journal of Transport Geography journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/jtrangeo Restructuring Argentina's airline networks: Successes and challenges T David J. Keeling Department of Geography and Geology, Western Kentucky University, Bowling Green, KY 42101-1066, United States ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: Argentina's aviation networks underwent significant restructuring after the 2015 election of President Mauricio LCCs Macri. Historically constrained by poor aviation infrastructure, economic uncertainty, currency devaluations, Argentina labor unrest, comparatively weak passenger demand, and operational barriers to low-cost carriers (LCCs), Global north-south Argentina's airline networks have experienced deep restructuring in both providers and network interactions. Airline networks With less than 0.3 trips per capita in Argentina, compared to 3.0 in the mature U.S. aviation market, analysts Origin-destination connections argue that there is significant potential for moving bus and automobile travelers to airlines, and to expanding Argentina's airline connectivity profitably throughout the region. LCCs such as Flybondi, Norwegian, Air Europa, Sky, JetSmart, and others are challenging long-standing transportation relationships in the region and devel- oping new routes for consumers. A set of interlinked questions aims to understand Argentina's changing aviation geography. Comparing O-D data from 1972, 1982, 1996, and 2019, the results indicate a significant re- organization of Argentinas domestic and regional network interactions, with modest adjustments to its global north-south connections. Challenges include outcomes of a recent change in Argentina's government and the long-term impact of the global COVID19 pandemic on the aviation system.
